The report into the Denbighshire LDP Examination has been released. Not surprisingly, given the lengths to which it seemed both Inspector and Welsh Government went to facilitate the proposals, it has been found 'Sound' with modifications.
25 additional housing sites are allocated to address concerns over deliverability of housing from the Bodelwyddan Key site in the immediate term and generally. A minimum density policy requires 35 dwellings per ha.
Viability issues for Affordable Housing result in an initial AH target of 10% on housing sites of 3 or more units along with monitoring points which would see that target rise where house sales prices increase to specified points above 2009 levels.
Other key changes include a new static and touring caravans policy which facilitates remodelling of existing static sites, potential for modest increases in numbers and which encourages suitable small scale touring caravan sites.
The report, was issued on 26th April and is binding on the Council. It will be reported to Full Council on 4 June 2013. Regardless of whether or not the Council choose to "ratify" it (see final line of press release) the plan has to be adopted by no later than 21 June 2013 whereupon it will replace the current Unitary Development Plan.
We are ready to review all your proposals and present them to the Council so they will be LDP compliant.
